They started demolishing the metal porches at the back of the old DHL building, so it might be going fast.
Anything further in the mean time?

If I remember correctly there can be only 1 flight between Senegal and Belgium, due to bilateral agreement. Correct me if I'm w...

Ownership of Brussels Airlines (current status):

Deutsche Lufthansa AG owns 100% of SN Airholding NV
SN Airholding NV owns 99,99% of Brussels Airlines NV
So who owns that 0,01% then?
